The patients were randomized to be fitted with a Balafilcon A (PureVision) lens in one eye and Galyfilcon A (Acuvue Advance) in the fellow eye. Uncorrected visual acuity, corneal epithelial status, conjunctival and limbal hyperemia, lens movement, contact lens debris, and the responses to a subjective\u2010comfort questionnaire were assessed postoperatively. The parameters were evaluated before and 1 and 5 days after the procedure. A paired Student's t\u2010test and chi\u2010square tests were used when appropriate.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results.<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We analyzed 44 eyes of 22 consecutive patients who underwent LASEK to correct low\u2010to\u2010moderate myopia.

There was no difference in conjunctival or limbal hyperemia, lens movement, uncorrected visual acuity, or epithelial healing between the two lenses at any visit.
